The ONLY allowed imagehosts (after August 17, 2012)=========================================
use any non-approved pic host (by intention or by chance) - > trashcan.
use them continuously -> ban. Period.

Any pics, thumbs, screencaps posted must be uploaded with one of the hosts below

1. imagebam - http://www.imagebam.com/max. file size: 4MB
gifs must be clicked to open for animation
no registration required but recommended for additional features
zip upload
upload up to 500 pics per batch

2. imgbox - http://imgbox.com/max. file size: 10MB
gifs must be posted as full size or clicked to open for animation
no registration required
no zip-upload
upload up to 500 pics per batch

Is this list set in stone? What about www.hugeup.com I have been using this host for my animated gifs. It is a great host without limits that allows nudity. Although, I still try to keep my gifs as small as possible and under 5MB I would prefer to use this imagehost for my gifs but I won't post anymore celebrity animated gifs using www.hugeup.com until I hear back from you. I know some people have been asking about photobucket in other threads as well. Thanks.

Photobucket isn't to be used because they have a low bandwidth limit and if it gets exceeded then you see this annoying image saying so. Personally, I'm not going to say anything if I see Photobucket or Flickr being used, but technically it is against the rules.

Plus, a lot of people don't bother to rehost the image on their own account and just post it still in some random persons account which is just going to add to the bandwidth problem.

Have you ever seen one of my Cd covers or video thumbnails not show up because of low bandwidth issues? I haven't. The only issue I've ever had with photobucket is they pulled the cover art to the Lennons' Two Virgins CD which I shouldn't have put there in the first place because it had British peen and saggy Japanese tits. I have all of my artwork available to me in Photobucket. I put a lot of effort into my posts and I don't really want to put any more effort into them right now. Fuck starting a new account somewhere else.

The main thing i want is for people to start using these options now. I don't expect people to go back and re-upload their artwork to these new hosts.

For cover art there is no need to register an account. Just use Tinypic. It's actually faster than using Photobucket and you'll never have to worry about bandwidth issues. Try it once and see for yourself.

It's cool, I opened a tinypic account because I like to keep track of the artwork for possible future use. What tinypic lacks is the option to input the online location of a pic to upload directly from the net like Photobucket has. It saves me from having to download the pic to my comp just to upload it and avoids clutter on my HD. Of course, I could just be missing this option and if anyone can point it out I would be grateful.
